Well, there's Liberty City Stories, but that's on PSP.
Not that it isn't POSSIBLE that Rockstar might make a PC port...but if they do, it'll be forever and a day coming out. Otherwise, you'll have to buy a PSP for it.
There'll be a GTA4 sooner or later. They can't keep on turning out GTA3 prequels forever.

Ah, but that's the whole idea! It would have to be a big world, though...I'd say include all the areas in all the 3D GTAs thus far, plus a few extra. Jack up the police difficulty, make gangs actively seek out and try to whack high-ranking players of rival factions, add some more weapons...and keep the stat tracking from SA (so that it doesn't take newbies TOO long to get up to speed, but enough to make the first week or so a difficult one).
Pure, beautiful, bloody, virtual chaos!

On the subject of GTA, I think what GTA really needs is more stuff to do outside of missions. Sure, there were plenty of sub-missions and other stuff in san andreas. But what about when not on any kind of mission or mini-game? it's basically just driving or running around, maybe looking for secret stuff or getting bored and killing people.
In san andreas, there are scripts set up that have planes occasionally fly across. Sometimes the planes crash...exactly the kind of thing I want. I was driving a car, got out to go to the gun shop, came out, heard an explosion and saw a crashed plane. Then turned to see my car and it was in flames. That kind of thing isn't the same on a mission because it's expected to happen.
Also the little bit where mob guys come after you if you get into debt with the casinos and don't repay...another quality assurance factor in the game.

The whole turf war aspect of SA was a great addition, IMHO. Only a certain percentage was required by the game to complete the final missions, and the rest was left for the player to finish. If you conquer all the turf, you no longer have to deal with enemy gangs taking potshots at you while you're buzzing around and taking care of business.
There were a lot more indoor environments this time around, but I think there need to be even more than that- and some of the mission-specific indoor areas become inaccessible after the missions themselves, which I think should change.
One thing that GTA has been sorely in need of since GTAIII is a mission replay feature- where, if you finish a mission, you can go back and replay it if you want to. That, I think, would add to the replay value of the game much more than anything else Rockstar could do.

I found SA boring. it gets damn repetative after a while, and it has "Look I'm a console game with sucky graphics" written all over it.
There's a hole in the sky through which things can fly.

most of the GTA missions involve you being in a car...MORE HARRIER MISSION!

Woulda been nice if you could do vigilante missions in the Hydra...every other military/police vehicle save for the Patriot would let you, I don't see why a fighter jet wouldn't.

Mustn't forget that mission replay feature. The longer GTA games get (and with nextgen consoles and PCs, they're only going to get longer and bigger), the less appealing it will become to play through however many hours of game in order to reach that one mission set you really, really loved.

And that, kiddies, is why you should wait for the vastly superior PC version to come out, so you only have to spend $50 instead of $350.
*edit* Ooo, looky here...LCS will be ported to PS2 at some point in the future. Looks like people who don't have PSPs will be able to play it after all. I wonder if a PC port announcement isn't far behind... Linkage!
